   The place has been open for a minute now, so we figured the kinks may have smoothed and decided to check the place out. Despite arriving on time for reservations, we were subjected to a tedious wait, where we saw others waiting as well. That put a dampener at the start of the experience. The hostess was courteous. They may be short staffed as there were many tables that sat around with menus in hand and servers, as we would also experience, not all that present. We did bring a bottle of wine which proved to be a challenge for their staff; they broke the cork. I would encourage any restaurant that has the potential to serve older bottles of wine to invest in a Durand wine opener. In any case, they did a pretty good job with decanting and filtering the wine, while we had appetizers. The food here is good, though not all that memorable. The sticky cauliflower was the standout of the first dishes. The octopus was good, while the bread was a bit dry and mediocre. Other than some upgrade to the sauce of the beef Wellington (which we didn’t get), there were no other specials to comment on. We did have their signature beef Wellington which was pretty good. The halibut and risotto were ok. We did add a lobster tail for additional variety; it was plated rather plainly with a slice of lemon. We all liked the side of truffle fries. We concluded with the sticky toffee which met expectations. As for service, there were some other missteps like having to ask for the drinks menu, then bringing the food out before the silverware, having to flag down some help to refill water and even having to ask to replace our table lamp that went out. Due to the earlier wine experience, they did waive the corkage and decanting fees (I’m guessing $35-50, though not sure what that actual cost was since it’s not published anywhere), which was nice. 20% gratuity was automatically added. I did like that we could pay the valet parking with the check. Overall, it was an OK/good experience. 3 stars.

   Get ready to spend some major money for not a lot of food. The ambiance is great. But the food prices are over the top. $66 for risotto with only 2 scallops. A rib eye for $100 that does NOT include any sides. They don’t even serve bread. I will never go back there. Not worth it.

   The food is pretty mediocre for it being Ramsays restaurant. After eating at Hell’s Kitchen in Las Vegas. I had very high expectations for ramsays kitchen in Saint Louis. Was utterly dissapointed. It was very surprising that most of the food was lacking flavor.

   Beautiful view of Gateway Arch from top floor of Four Seasons. Gordon’s signature menu items did not disappoint. For me the Potato Leak Soup, of all things, stole the show. Unexpected and exceptional. Everyone in the party had a memorable meal. Service was good and the pace relaxed.

   Great restaurant. Very clean and the staff was fantastic. They knew what we needed before we even had a chance to ask for it. The sticky cauliflower is amazing. The scallops and the fish and chips were fantastic. All the breading on the food items was light and crunchy (exactly how fried items should be enjoyed). The mac and cheese is probably the best I've ever had. And well the beef wellington needs no introduction. Great place with even better food.

    Food was amazing and so was the service. Only concern was thinking that it was considered a dressier atmosphere. A lot of the customers were in Jeans and hoodies instead of nice attire. Just thought that there was a dress code due to the dining experience and environment.
